    Austin (lead here) and Adam (beatboxer) killed it. This was during Covid so they weren’t even together and I thought the use of tv’s was clever. Watch Adam Rupp Drum Solo (2015). It’s just him and a microphone doing drums….amazing. Newer ones have the looper and not as much drumming. Enjoy!

    Here's the thing about HF, they make their fans (fries) feel like everything to them! This is one of their "Quarantine" videos. During lockdown they put out a new video every other Friday. It made us have something to look forward to. And, they cover every genre, plus beautiful & funny originals!

    Probably because he isn't doing that nasal thing too often. When he shelves that, he's a great singer.

    Yes, Austin nailed it. He gives himself completely here and also plays very well with the cameras. The great harmonies, deep bass and the unbelievably freaking good beatboxing/vocal percussion/vocal sounds finish it all off for me. I think it sounds perfect because of all the different beautiful voices. I grew up performing Percy Sledge which I already loved. Then came Michael Bolton's performance where I couldn't say it was better. But this one from Home Free certainly is.

    Austin did a fabulous job of this classic song. Loved Percy Sledge's version, but this was taken to another level. I think it is also better than Michael Bolton's version. And remember this was done during quarantine, so the guys weren't even together. The backing harmonies are great, along with Tim's bass. And Adam's vocal percussion is outstanding. Drummers have often commented on just how realistic his sound is. This is why these guys are my favorite a cappella group.
    I think they would do a great job of Bryan Adam's song "Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman"!

    • @jeffstumpf9129

Bring Him Home he uses his classical training to surprise us all. Unchained Melody by Home Free is worth checking out for sure. So many, many great ones they've done. Take care.

    Austin is a master at conveying emotion when he sings. It may come from the fact that he studies Musical Theater in college. He has his own You Tube channel. There is not a bad song on it, but I would start with the two best, Bring Him Home and Unchained Melody and then get your tissues ready for Tears in Heaven and Danny Boy.

    Hi Leonardo, love your reactions. On End of the Road I agree that I would have liked to hear Rob hit it harder in the beginning. However, in his defense, if you've listened to any of Elvis Presley's songs, a lot of the time he'll start out a little lighter and build with each verse to a crescendo. I have a feeling that maybe that is what Rob was doing. He started out softer and then wanted to end with a stronger push. That's just my opinion. And yes, the guys killed this one. Austin had it goin on.

    • @mjsabie8517

      I agree that is probably what they were going for and they did a great job. The thing is it’s all subjective. We all like and even love things that others don’t. Especially when it comes to music. There is very little my wife and I agree about when it comes to music. Didn’t mean she is wrong or that I am “right” just we have different preferences.

Creator Ressurectsis has original music that Austin sings for her. She said she chose him because he is a tenor that sings feelings. Her songs sung by Austin: Empty House, I Want Her Back, The Bed. He has many solos on his own RUclips channel; Bring Him Home, Signed Sealed Delivered, At Last, Tears in Heaven to name just a few. Check out his solo of Unchained Melody.

    To me, the defining characteristic of Austin's performance is joy. I always hated Bolton's version because he made it sound like he hated love and resented women. Austin, having finally found his soulmate, is gladly able to take the risks of giving your life over to someone else, and this comes over so clearly here.
    This performance, together with the body of work on Austin's own channel, marked his arrival as a real power tenor to be reckoned with. He has also emerged as a talented songwriter (we already knew his skilful arrangements)and there are great videos of his originals on his channel.
    The latest album is mostly originals, a lot by Austin (and mostly about or to his lady, the most important thing in his life). If you want emotion, check out Save the World, charting Austin's own redemption through love, and using his darker lower register to great dramatic effect. The song and video are interesting as well because they mark the band's willingness to make drastic changes to what we have come to expect, as they transition from country covers to exciting new material.

      What are you rambling about? He was super respectful. He merely said he thought Robs performance lacked the emotion of the song in the first half of the song. He didn’t have to be able to sing as well as Rob to have an opinion about the performance. What a ridiculous idea. He even said Robs performance was technically great. He just wanted the emotion that was present at the beginning to be there the entire song. You can disagree which is fine. It’s a subjective opinion.
      But, it's a good way to be "honest" AND lose viewers at the same time. So are you saying that you only watch videos if you completely agree with an opinion? What a narrow view point. That is what we call an echo chamber. That’s a good way to never grow or learn anything new

    I loved the late Percy Sledge's 1966 original (not so much Michael Bolton's cover - I thought it rather over-wrought). The writer of the original had just had a bad break-up and Percy Sledge sings "I gave you everything I had". Austin's lady Amberly was in the studio and he sings "I'll give you everything I've got". A slight but significant difference (he's written The Stargazer Trilogy, Rest of My Life and Everlasting Ground for her).
